Question

The sum of three consecutive number is
56

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x+x+1+x+2=56

3x+3=56

BUT THIS QUESTION IN WRONG 56 is not possible with 3 consecutive numbers.

Answer 2

Answer:

No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive odd numbers be x, x+1 and x+2

According to question,

x+x+1+x+2 = 56

=> 3x + 3 = 56

=> 3x = 53

=> x = 53/3

But, The value of x should be integral for three consecutive numbers, x, x+1 and x+2.

Hence, No solution.
